MAIL MATTERS.

POSTAL EXPERT PRAISES HONGKONG.

An opinion on local mall matters from such a well-inform- ed authority as Mr. Jose Tapacio, the Director of the Postal Bureau of the Philippinas, is worth quoting. As has been reported in this paper, Mr. Tapacio Is ons of] the two representatives of the

During his stay in this Edam Colony, Mr. Tapacio paid a visit

to the Hongkong Post Office, and the conclusions he formed after Cream

an hour's acquaintance with the Postal system here were express- ed to a representative of the Telegraph. He said that the system here was highly satisfac tory. He found no dificulties in it, and expressed his surprise at the state of efficiency maintain- ed here, in spite of the vast volume of mails dealt with.

Alloding to the question of mail subsidies takoa up by the C.P.O.S., Mr. Tupacio informed our representative that the matter had also been con- sidered by himself on behalf of the Philippines, and the agree ment eventually reached was the grant of 35 cents per lb. for letters and couts per lb. for parcels, etc. 10 the Empress, boats for the carriage of rails to Canada. A comparison be tween this grant and that allowed in Hongkong offers little ground for criticism, as the respectiva rates are almost identical.

Further utterances by Mr. Tapatio would seem to indicate that this arrangement was not reached without prolonged negotiations. The C.P.O.S. wanted the rate fixed in proportion to the cubic space taken up, and they asked for $2 per cubic fool. rejected by this Philippines Postal Bureau which then fixed the rates at the figures quoted. A cabled communication received from the Vancouver Headquarters acquiesced in these
